Why Love so Unfair? Those who can love And could find their halves Are fortunate Or so. Never they preach About oblivion they seek A soul mate on each bow. I, where careless tears shed To find a mere resolute, fade Into fanciful moisture_ Fumes of insecurity, Surreal Impasse lit it, Although for an emotional furniture! In vain I Cry For a thousand try, To love in back of what! With a face like Othello, In just Shakespeare, it’s mellow For Desdemona to spare a- ‘but!’. Hope is lulling And Age is calling, The seeker is a fake; Love is all, In it you fall Without a result to make. Just like this, My fellows beseech And Imagination of their own. It’s fatally rude For me to be crude! And state what is already known! Background - "A faded oil paint, considered an abstract, portrays the unpredictable love" The narration here is a normal guy, he just likes to state something that we already know.

Is It Love?
Once I was born, in this world, to breathe,
And they say it is a natural phenomenon of love and heat;
The true love, is it? As they say indeed,
Or just a hallucination, of each other’s need!
As I came to know the actual testimony of love,
The world seemth, out of true affectionate hub;
My daily life goes on with this same question to Jove,
If there is left, for our current race, any hope?
At last when I learn human bondage, out of dependency,
The fallen pieces, give it a ring, over my efficiency;
It became all clear, love as a word, is just man’s insolvency,
The obsession prevailed, o’er something, as a certain deficiency.
Prithee God, doest not give ideas, to this civilized hierarchy,
A man just needs, solace of empathy, to manifest true autarky.

| Background - "A Wondering Child at Dusk" |
- I remember writing this poem as a graduation treat for my English teacher, who celebrated my high school English final's result, prescribed as Outstanding.
- Especially it is my first written sonnet with a particular theme.
- This format and how well the poem turned out made me addicted to writing sonnets. And in the next two years, I finished writing two long volumes of my sonnet collection, "My Hereditary Experience" (Including 58 sonnets and 14 other poems). (You can find them on Amazon.in) (Goodreads - My Hereditary Experience Vol.1, My Hereditary Experience Vol.2)
- This sonnet is based on the subject matter of an emotionless child and his views on Love. How love as a mere subject is so much overrated is expressed here.
